Bad Girls of the Bible: Exploring Women of Questionable Virtue

Barbara Essex brings to life the Bible's "bad girls"--notorious women we love to hate.

Exploring lives filled with betrayal, deception, rejection, jealousy, and exploitation, Essex looks beyond the notoriety to show us women of exceptional boldness, courage, determination, and independence. These stories tell us about women we know--women not that different from ourselves. This twelve-week study is designed for women and men, laity and clergy, who seek fresh ways to preach and teach the stories of biblical women.
